“…how can I lOVE IT already?!!” Vocal coach EMOTIONAL reaction to WICKED TRAILER 

📌PATREON: Watch my FULL EXTENDED reaction to WICKED w/behind the scenes filming! 👉bit.ly/WICKEDTRAILER2

You can tell Ariana is channeling her idol KRISTIN Chenowich her mentor. This role meant alot to her and it’s her dream come true.

I fear this movie is going to eat

Elphaba's sister is in a wheelchair, at least until Elphaba gives her magical shoes that allow her to walk. Those shoes eventually will help Dorothy walk to the Emerald City.

I thought it would take more than this 3 minutes to convince me that this could be translated into a film. I grew up as next door neighbor to the author of the book, and got to see THE ORIGINAL CAST perform this wonderful show. I have been back multiple times, ALONE, because it holds that deep a piece of my heart. This trailer and the behind the scenes footage dropped the day before both not only brought me to TEARS, but excited me to see THESE FILMS.

The way I manifested Cynthia singing "Defying Gravity" YEARS ago.. she is going to ANNIHILATE this song! You're welcome folks 😭😭😭❤️❤️

im glad they split this movie into two, they don't have to squeeze the whole show into one film.

This is book + musical+ brand new moments from the broadway book writer. We will see never before seen things throughout both films. That's exciting.

Even singing Ari sounds like Kristin to me. The first time I heard Popular from this trailer I was like " Are they using Kristin's voice for the trailer as an homage?"

I'm dying, this seems so much closer to Wicked the book than the musical was and the book has 4 BOOKS IN THE SERIES! I got a full ride scholarship for a year for an essay I wrote about the political climate in Oz from the book and I am in absolute HOG HEAVEN over this preview. I haven't been this excited about a movie in a very, very long time.

Kristin said she coached her for the film. Yes, I heard a lot of it too!

Ari's voice during Defying Gravity with Cynthia is so powerful and emotional I was this close to tearing up and it makes me very excited when the soundtrack comes out! 😭

Kristin Chenoweth was on Glee, but also on Julie Andrews' Life Achievement Tribute, and Cynthia was there too, Ariana got a sample of My Favorite Things from Julie Andrews, Kristin was on Glee and acted with Lea Michele that acted with Ariana on Scream Queens, Julie plays the voiceover of Bridgerton where Jonathan Bailey is in...I love these iconics connections😍💗

5:38- This moment, pure ACTING GOLD

I’m bringing a whole box of tissues with me to the theater 😂 I’m crying at the trailer I am going to be a hot mess during the movie too

There’s two parts confirmed

4:02 "What the shiz" and the laugh. I'm dyingg😭😭

If this does not WIN both the Golden Globe AND the Oscar for Best EVERTTHING, they have NO TASTE in what a good movie is anymore. I have not even SEEN the Broadway version, and I am excited. I DID listen to Idina Menzel singing Defying Gravity and she gave me chills and made me cry. Perhaps she can do this song over the end credits, like they did with Celine Dion in Beauty and the Beast.? DAMN this looks impressive, compared to other recent musicals (Cats) and DEFINITELY better than Oz the Great and Powerful. I like Elphaba's makeup and costuming much better here. it seems to be staying true to the story. They are not making Elphaba just another super empowered woman. She has some pain and some cracks and it seems like she FINDS her power through this. THAT is how to properly portray an empowered woman.

The “Him” that you’re trying to identify is Fiyero, played by Jonathan Bailey who we know from Bridgerton and most recently Fellow Travelers.

We need you to react to the Wicked Passion Project video next!!! 💚🙏🏾

You need to watch them sing together at the Met Gala! Amazing

We will be getting a sequel to Wicked Releasing next year It serves as act 2

The accent reminds me more of Kristin Chenoweth's character from The West Wing for some reason. But I kind of like it even though it sounds nothing like Glenda's accent from The Wizard of Oz.

i NEED to hear this Defying Gravity...its sooo GOOD so far!

I was skeptical about Ariana being cast as Glinda, because I have only seen her act in Victorious, and I think of her more as a pop star than a Broadway singer (though I know that she did get her start on Broadway). However, based on this trailer I think she will do a good job in this role. I look forward to seeing her performance!

I totally cried when I watched this the first time lol

The musical is based on the novel "Wicked" by Gregory Maguire. Then, it got developed into a musical-meanwhile he released a sequel called "Son of a Witch". So, there is a potential for this to be a franchise, cover the broadway musical, but then do something like "Greatest Showman" and just release movie musicals as sequels. All based on the books.

It's literally perfect 💚

You should read the book. It's *very* different in a lot of ways but gives a lot of context that will reshape your udnerstanding of the musical.

I was shouting, "STOP" at the screen when you put in that chloe bailey meme thing, i freaking can't LOL.. Love your reaction to the trailer by the way!

I NEEEED the full version of Ariana’s rendition of ‘popular’

I'm so happy about this movie, Part One better end on that High note and snap to black. I really hope they release the Movie Soundtrack before it comes out, its gonna be amazing!

I loved your spontaneity hahwha!!! This movie will definitely be the best of the year ❤

It gives me life seeing reactions like yours from people who know nothing about the musical and then are trying to guess the references or are being shocked by some plot points and implications. That is what I'm most excited about this 2 parter movie is going to get so much new fans into this Wickedly fandom

Ariana is perfect for this role! My only frame is reference though is Screen Queens and Don’t Look Up 😆

3:08 woh!, Ariana might have some serious country twang but you just became Jennifer Coolidge for a second!

If they make the whole series into films I’d be so happy

7:20 ish i think is from the coda of defying gravity, taken out of context, from after the "Bring me down".

It's clear from this trailer that it ends with Defy Gravity, so this film is only half the story. They split the play into two movies.

I would love for you to do a reaction to Cynthia erivo at the Kennedy center honors doing Dionne Warwick’s “alfie”. That tribute is what has me really excited for wicked. 😊

I’ve been waiting for this movie for 20 years. I’ve lived the world of Oz since I was a little girl. I’m so excited

Just commenting to say I really enjoyed the editing in this reaction it was really fun😂

This is my petition for Cynthia Erivo as Storm in the MCU... Also on that note, Michelle Yeoh would've made a great Madame Web for the Spiderverse

I feel like the movie is gonna end with defying gravity.

One sequel, plus three or four new songs !!

I will admit that when the casting was announced, I wasn’t thrilled. The first tease we got of the movie, I wasn’t thrilled. Now this trailer drops and I feel a whole lot better about it. I can’t freaking wait!!!!

I'm crying alot seeing this ❤❤❤❤can't wait to see it. 😊

I 100% agree with you, and I totally think it was on purpose. I know Kristen & Idina’s performances (due to.. ahem *legal* copies of the OBC online) like the back of my hand, and from the first teaser trailer, I knew Elphaba was very, very different from Idina’s from 2 lines of delivery alone. At first I was pretty bummed out due to how attached I am to that version of her, but now that more time has passed, I think it’s perfect. Ariana being a homage and paying tribute to Kristen & Cynthia making this role totally her own brings a beautiful mix of old & new, tradition & original.

You should react to Jonathan Bailey’s audition for the Last Five Years. He’s gonna be a great Fiyero

Omggg love your reaction isss literally killing me to laugh 😭😭

CANT WAIT FOR THIS MOVIE OMG I just wish it wasn’t releasing in two parts 😭

The way I cracked up at that last sentence

im unexspectedly excited for this movie now. and there is a few more books so we could get sequels. by the way if u havenet read the book, i totaly recomend.

I cant stop crying. So excited

How do you not know that Jonahtan Bailey is Fiyero? Literally one of the main characters. LOL

That is a great laugh for her character.

Regarding sequels..... We WILL be getting a "Part 2" next year as they're splitting the stage musical into two movies. I can only assume that the split will be placed at the end of Act I, IE after "Defying Gravity." That being said, the Wicked novels DO have three sequels but none of them have been adapted into any kind of visual medium yet. Personally, I would love to see them, perhaps as a Netflix or Hulu series, a la "The Handmaids Tale" SPOILERS AHEAD.......... In the original Gregory Maguire novel, "Wicked: The Life and Time of the Wicked Witch of the West," Elphaba ultimately ends up dying at the end of the book, just like she does in the original story, after Dorothy tosses the bucket of water on her. In the musical, Elphaba fakes her own death and flees Oz with Fiyero. We don't yet know if the movie will adapt the ending of the book or the musical. That being said, Elphaba also has a son in the books named Liir, and eventually a granddaughter named Rain who both serve as the protagonists of some of the sequels.

Wicked is actually going to be separated in two parts because they couldn’t fit all of the musical into one movie !

I have only watched clips of the musical (dont worry i found a slime recipe in youtube will watch the musical this week), but i love the book, read it in middle school for the first time, have read it 3 times more since then, i get emotional watching the trailer, it is what i read coming to life in the best way, i remember every scene from the book, cannot be more excited from it. So ready for thanks giving to see this.

This had me psyched!

I don't comment much here, but you are literal perfection and I love you. The little things you catch in everything you react to are perfection

I, too, would love to know about the origin of the hat given to Elphaba by GA-linda. It might be in the original book.

I CRIED

So I was watching Ryan McCartan's reaction and he seems to think that all the music is a "trailer version" of the actual music, because it is so different.

This Tribute 😂😂😂 excactly thought the same 😮

ARGH I HOPE SHE REACTS TO JOKER: 2 TRAILER.

YOU NEED TO REACT TO MORE JEREMY JORDAN OMG! Specifically Hazbin hotel “more than anything”, great gatsby, tangled the series and his version of “what a beautiful morning”. AND BONNIE AND CLYDE OMG AND DEATH NOTE. wow I just realized how much that is

Can you please react to Rapunzel’s tangled Adventure. It has Eden Espinosa and Jeremy Jordan as the characters Cassandra and Varian and the best part is that it’s a musical💚

CAN YOU REACT TO THE BALLAD OF SONGBIRDS AND SNAKES??? ❤ PLEASE, RACHEL ZEGLER SING BEAUTIFULLY!!!!

I can’t wait for it.

Looks awesome 😎

Doctor Dilamond is a goat- book and stage musical! Also Fiyero is a Winkie prince AND a student. You’ve seen this, right?!! 😂

I cried with this trailer😭

I cant even correct things in good consicious, I only saw the stage show in Melbourne a month ago 😅 and i know how easy it is to forget details

Nice video! And digging in is great, but something to consider: letting the trailer play through on the first time so viewers (especially ones just finding the channel) can see your initial reaction without breaking the flow--then doing the pausing and rewinding on a second pass.

I miss ariana being in movies/tv shows i missed her in victorious and sam and cat 😢

CAN YOU REACT TO THE HUNGER GAMES BALLAD OF SONGBIRDS AND SNAKES??? ❤ PLEASE, RACHEL ZEGLER SING BEAUTIFULLY!!!!

WE NEED EUROVISION REACTIONS

Can we get a series of the 2004 version of the phantom of the opera?

I hear Return to Oz underscoring and I am freaking out!

2:51 this is the most unhinged and hilarious edit LMFAO

Fiyero having his hands wide open mostly is hinting something....

This movie is just act 1, Act 2 is coming out 2025 around the same time

The Chloe meme IM CRYINGGGGGGGG

Zayn album Room under the stairs

The Taylor swift edit killed me😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

There's gonna be a part 2

Loving your reactions - but do you know the story at all? *with love* the sequel is Wizard of Oz ;)

Jonathan Bailey plays Fiyero. But they are all over age 18 as they are in university

3:38 it’s a university so they’re late teens early twenties. And mister love interest is their classmate

🤩

It’s bringing me back to the Mika ft her song, also called “Popular” 😊 1:11

Well you'll definitely get one sequel since this movie is only act 1

Kerry ellis hold my wine.

The moral message of the musical is as they quote: Looking at things in a different way, We see the story of Oz from Elphaba and Glinda's perspective

Have you reacted to Epic: the musical yet?

How can you know so little about Wicked?

Hello 👋

pleaseee listed to billies new album

taylorrrr😭
